29th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
11st 13lb |
Dual Nottingham winner; acts on soft, unraced on heavy; shot back to some form when storming home in an amateur riders' race at Bath (11.5f, good to soft) last month; well below form next time (1m6f, which he stays) but Henry Callan galvanised him to a 1m4f win at Newbury (soft) on Saturday; sole attempt at 1m2f was in 2021 but he had to hold on at Newbury after going clear and his appearance over this trip with 4lb penalty no longer looks ridiculous. |

Acts on soft, unraced on heavy; shot back to some form when storming home in an amateur riders' race at Bath (11.5f, good to soft) last month; well below form off this 7lb higher mark at Haydock (1m6f, which he stays) 13 days later, however. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Very solid record in 2024 on turf but 592 days off before this season; beaten a long way on his return (his only AW race) and not so far next time but he still has major work to do to turn things around. |

12th Jun 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Beaten a long way on his return from 20 months off at Kempton (2m, AW) 16 days ago and still 6lb above his last winning mark; needs the ground to dry out. |
14/1 |

27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Finally off the mark in Britain in May 2024 and runner-up on next four starts, including when coming from well back over 2m4f at Glorious Goodwood; however, he flopped when just 9-1 for the Cesarewitch (soft) that October and not seen since; that was his only run in Britain on softer than good; well handicapped were he to return at his best on this AW debut after 588 days off; market may guide. |

24th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |

Veteran who was successful in this race last year but was in slightly better form at the time (completed an October double); that said, wasn't entirely disgraced when in the frame on latest start. |
10/1 |

4th 1 (10) |
9th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 37y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Veteran who has lost his way since winning over this far at Lingfield in June (good to soft) but he is dropping back from Class 4 level. |

12th Sep 2025 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Veteran who showed a fire still burned when winning a six-runner handicap at Lingfield (1m2f, good to soft) in June; third to Beach Point over C&D next time but his form has dipped on his last two starts; rain will help but vulnerable to less-exposed sorts. |

6th Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Former Group 3 winner who's been on the slide for a while now; suggested he was about to exploit a much reduced mark when fourth at Wolverhampton (9.4f) last month and he attracted good support when keeping on for third at Brighton (1m2f, good to soft) ten days ago; overall profile far from persuasive but he still warrants consideration. |
3/1 |

3rd 6 (1) |
27th May 2025 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Suggested he might be able to exploit his much reduced mark soon when fourth at Wolverhampton (9.4f) a fortnight ago but his run at Kempton (1m4f) on Wednesday was a backward step and he remains without a win since his Irish Group 3 success in June 2022. |

15th Jul 2026 Good 1m 3f 103y |
10st 1lb |
Has done plenty of racing since a Limerick win last summer; generally modest form this season, with the exception of a Navan third; others look more likely. |

11th Jul 2026 Firm 1m 4f 65y |

12th Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y |
10st 2lb |
Added third Flat win at Limerick off 73 last summer (1m5f, good); poor form following that until an encouraging 3.5l third of 14 at Navan five days ago when dropping into this grade for the first time (1m5f, good); not ruled out. |

29th Sep 2024 Heavy 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won at Bath (soft; acts on heavy) in April and ran respectably most starts since; however, he was a remote seventh behind Miller Spirit over C&D 17 days ago, despite starting favourite at a track he does handle. |
10/1 |

7th 6 (8) |
12th Sep 2024 Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Won at Bath (1m3f, soft) in April and has run creditably on most starts since, at up to 1m6f; unlikely to be far away if she handles this track. |
7/1 |

5th 1 (5) |
6th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won here in 2022 but has not fared so well in his three subsequent visits; won at Bath (1m3f, soft) in April and has run creditably over 1m6f in three of his four races since, so has each-way claims. |

7th Aug 2025 Good 1m 3f 198y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Won this 12 months ago and returns on a hat-trick after another course win (made all) and a success at Salisbury that looked unlikely until he picked up late on; might travel sweeter back at this track and can cope with this mark. |
3/1 |

1st 3 (2) |
12th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Returned from three-month break with front-running win at Brighton (1m4f, good) in May and will be fine on the faster surface here but he's probably not quite as good as he was; younger rivals appeal more. |
11/4 |
|
1 (3) |
30th May 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Ordinary form on the AW during the winter but he is 5lb lower than when winning over C&D (good to firm) last August; off since February but he's respected back here on this return. |
